EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph titled "The old player piano" taken by Carlo Bevilacqua in 1975, we are transported back to a nostalgic era of childhood. The portrait captures the essence of a young boy, whose age is indeterminate but his innocence shines through. Dressed in clothing that reflects the popular fashion of the time, the child's melancholy expression hints at deeper emotions beneath his youthful facade. The physiological and psychological aspects of his being are evident as he gazes into the distance, lost in thought. This image serves as a poignant reminder of how human psychology can manifest even at such an early stage in life. The presence of the player piano adds another layer to this composition. It symbolizes not only an instrument but also a document that speaks volumes about music's role in our lives. As we observe this male child engrossed in introspection, one cannot help but wonder about his story - is he merely captivated by the melody or does it serve as an escape from reality? This portrait challenges us to consider society and politics within its frame. While we may be tempted to label him as a beggar due to his worn appearance, it reminds us that social status should never define an individual's worth or potential. Bevilacqua masterfully captures both the physicality and emotional depth of this young subject while leaving room for interpretation. Through this evocative photograph, he invites viewers on a journey into their own memories and experiences – reminding us all that childhood holds universal moments filled with joy, sadness, hopefulness, and resilience regardless of societal circumstances or material wealth.
